Lets See Your Smokers!

French-made Chacom. Single cylinder, 100% reliable.

 

It was a Vj22 rgv250...

 

Which one? I've got a brand new Smokey Mountain I'll be christening very soon.

 

Reminds me of many moons ago

 

Spent a year restoring the 350lc, was silly to sell it
The 500 I should have kept , prices started to rocket after I sold it, story of my life

 

Here’s my RD250D, rarely used, must get it out charged, ridden and sold.

This belongs to a friend of mine. It's a Bantam with a twist.




RG 500 short motor with Ariel Arrow cylinders.

 

There’s some work gone into building that, love it.

 

One of the last carburettor bonnies (2006)

 

Agreed. That’s the nuts.

 

Is that the 2 stroke model?

 

Smokes like a 2 stroke.

 

I had an RS570 (Aprilia with a tuned and bored RG500 motor in it). Does that count?

What kind of sick bast starts a thread about stinkwheel two strokes,……when I haven’t got one !!

I would however absolutely luuuurve one of these …



Dread to think how much they are worth now?

 

Actually out of all the big 2 strokes the Honda NS400R is still just about within reach price wise.

 

You’re a bad man!…that’s me Googling all night !

 

That looks lovely!

 

I got one. pricewise you should be able to get a decent one for £8k to £10k.

 

maybe because they are a bit ‘forgotten’ they don’t light the spec sheet up, and never really had a huge following, are there even big numbers out there compared to say RG or RD?
